Great idea, Art! I second this suggestion, and I would add the additional suggestion that all the vendors do so in the first line/sentence of the text. Something like:
I am the developer of / represent the developer of / sell / the product(s) discussed below. Then continue with the rest of the message. This approach makes the situation abundantly clear from the top. IMO, anything buried farther down will be missed by some people, or will appear somewhat out of context. To me, this is like any other presentation of information, simply frame what's coming, then share it. Simple! Straightforward. And clear.

Because this list is often on auto-pilot with the owner not especially active, I'd like to put forward the idea: When vendors step forward with a recommendation for a plug-in, auxiliary program, post processor, or other FM tool that solves a problem, that they mention their association with the product. Either a line in the post / recommendation or a line in their .sig that identifies the provider of information as someone who has an interest in the product. Like everyone else, I think, I value both the tools and the special expertise that vendors bring to the list and their products (I certainly use enough of them!). But I think it's only fair that they clearly identify themselves to make things very clear to posters who may not have been on the list long enough to identify them by email address.
